Clarification of the League Rule regarding, filling in Score Cards prior to the match and the addition of an exception for reserve players whom normally play in another team.

Published Monday 1 October 2018

Following a query at the weekend, the Manx Netball Association Committee wish to clarify that whilst squad members should be on the score card before a match commences, they are mindful that reserves could be from a different team within the Club and once they are down on the scorecard they are then tied to that team.

Following consultation the Committee has decided to amend the rule to allow reserves from a different team to be written down after the match commences, but before they take to the court.

Extra time will NOT be allowed so teams need to act promptly if such a situation arises during a match.
